Confidential | September 2010 PCI Express to 6Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Host Bus Adapters User Guide Chapter 1: Introduction | Overview Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter describes the LSI PCI Express to 6Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI host bus adapters. 1.1 Overview The LSI PCI Express (PCIe) to Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) host bus adapters (HBAs) provide four, eight, or sixteen serial ports for connection to SAS and Serial ATA (SATA) devices. Each port is capable of 1.5Gb/s, 3Gb/s, and 6Gb/s link rates for both SAS and SATA. The PCIe transmission and reception data rate is 5Gb/s in each direction, yielding a total bandwidth of 10Gb/s for each full-duplex lane. The LSI PCIe to SAS HBAs use four, eight, or sixteen PCIe phys, which provide possible host-side maximum transmission and reception rates of up to 8GB/s for the LSISAS9202-16e HBA (x16 interface). The design of the LSI HBAs makes it easy to add SAS interfaces to any computer, workstation, or server that has a PCIe bus. The LSISAS9211-4i, LSISAS9210-8i, LSISAS9211-8i, LSISAS9200-8e, LSISAS9212-4i4e, LSISAS9200-16e, LSISAS9201-16e, LSISAS9201-16i, and LSISAS9202-16e HBAs include Flash ROM for storing the BIOS and firmware, and NVSRAM for storing nonvolatile RAID information. The LEDs on the HBAs report a heartbeat. Fusion-MPT™ firmware operates the HBA. The PCIe interface is compliant with the PCI Express Specification, revision 2.0. All PCI software is backward compliant with previous versions of the PCI/PCI-X specifications. The LSI PCIe to SAS HBAs use either a standard PCI bracket or a low-profile, PCI-bracket type. The interface of the LSI HBAs is compatible with the ANSI Serial Attached SCSI Specification, revision 2.0 and the Serial ATA Specification, revision 2.6. The PCIe and SAS functionality of LSI PCIe to SAS HBAs is provided by one of the following LSI controller chips:  The LSISAS2004 controller chip, which integrates four high-performance SAS/SATA phys and connects up to four SAS/SATA devices to a computer system through the PCIe interface.  The LSISAS2008 controller chip, which integrates eight high-performance SAS/SATA phys and connects up to eight SAS/SATA devices to a computer system through the PCIe interface.  The LSISAS2116 controller chip, which integrates sixteen high-performance SAS/SATA phys and connects up to sixteen SAS/SATA devices to a computer system through the PCIe interface. The controller chip on each HBA connects directly to the PCIe bus and generates timing and protocol in compliance with the PCIe specification. The controller chips connect channels directly to the SAS and SATA devices in the computer system. As described in Chapter 3, Host Bus Adapter Characteristics, the LSI controllers use either a x4, x8, or x16 PCIe connector.
